There were a lot of factors and events, but I think the first really formative time in my path to maturity (such as it was and is) was the University of Utah. A time of Enlightenment, deprograming, and developing essential skills. College really can be a highlight of your life. Self discovery can be a wonderful thing.

Still trying to figure out why this is in the Stadium, though.Prepare to put mustard on those words, for you will soon be consuming them, along with this slice of humble pie that comes direct from the oven of shame set at gas mark “egg on your face”! -- Moss
There's three rules that I live by: never get less than twelve hours sleep; never play cards with a guy who's got the same first name as a city; and never go near a lady's got a tattoo of a dagger on her body. Now you stick to that, everything else is cream cheese. --Coach Finstock

Give 'em Hell, Cougars!!!
For all this His anger is not turned away, but His hand is stretched out still.
Not long ago an obituary appeared in the Salt Lake Tribune that said the recently departed had "died doing what he enjoyed most—watching BYU lose."

I have a story like that.Originally posted by SeattleUte View PostI'm hoping for some loss of virginity stories in this thread. Older women. Sorry; I was too sheltered. I was already a man.
I went to work for her that summer; a teenage kid far from home. She was a lonely widow woman hell-bent to make it on her own. We were a thousand miles from nowhere with wheat fields as far as I could see. We both needed something from each other, not knowing yet what that might be. She came to me one evening with a hot cup of coffee and a smile and in a dress that I was certain she hadn't worn in quite a while. There was a difference in her laughter and a softness in her eyes, and on the air there was a hunger even a boy could recognize.
She had a need to feel the thunder and chase the lightning from the sky. To watch a storm with all its wonder, raging in her lover's eyes. She had to ride the heat of passion, like a comet burning bright, rushing headlong in the wind, out where only dreams have been, burning both ends of the night.
That summer wind was all around me and nothing between us but the night. When I told her that I had never, she softly whispered "that's alright." And then I watched her hands of leather turn to velvet in a touch.
There's never been another summer when I have ever learned so much.Prepare to put mustard on those words, for you will soon be consuming them, along with this slice of humble pie that comes direct from the oven of shame set at gas mark “egg on your face”! -- Moss

SU, are we talking prelapsarian or postlapsarian?"Wuap's "problem" is that he is smart & principled & committed to a moral course of action. His actions are supposed to reflect his ethical code.
The rest of us rarely bother to think about our actions." --Solon

I was hoping this would be another thread about sex. Now all we need is someone to include porn and we'll be on our way to another classic CUF thread.Originally posted by SeattleUte View PostI'm hoping for some loss of virginity stories in this thread.

Knock it off. This board has enough problems without a dose of middle-age lechery.

Perhaps I could make a nuanced reference to sex with my wife too.Originally posted by pellegrino View PostI was hoping this would be another thread about sex.
